Introduction

Watch the following video to discover the third step in a simple procurement process for consumable material: posting and verifying a supplier invoice.

Invoice Verification

The final step in our external procurement process for consumable materials is to verify and post the supplier's invoice.

As in the procurement process for stock, it is also important in the procurement process for consumables to refer to the purchase order when checking invoices.

This graphic shows an invoice posted with reference to a purchase order and the consequences of this posting: An invoice document and an accounting document are created.

An invoice document and an accounting document are generated as a result of the posted invoice. This is the case for both invoice verification with reference to purchase orders for consumables and invoice verification with reference to purchase orders for stock material.

In principle, there is no significant difference between invoice verification with reference to purchase orders for stock material and invoice verification with reference to purchase orders for consumables.

The following demo shows the checking and posting of an invoice with reference to a purchase order for consumables using the Create Supplier Invoice app.
